Divorce

1. A losing our first love – When iniquity abounds, the love of many waxes cold (Rev 2:4; Mat 24:12). The affections get dull and blunted. 2. Losing the edge of our conscience – The conscience ceases to be sensitive and tender. It does not shrink from sin as it used to do. 3. Callousness as to truth – We get so familiarized with truth that it ceases to affect us. It loses its power over us. 4. Insensibility to sin – Our own evils are not felt as they used to be; sin itself is not so hated and shunned as formerly.

Divorce – by Arielle Matiah Hall – a victim, age 12

Divorce is like a storm,
destroying people and
anything in its’ path.
Merciless, uncaring what it does.
We beg for it to stop,
but alas it ignores our desperate calls,
and goes on until it ruins everything.
